zoZo.
The sale of seats for the grand spectacular
performance of "Zozo" will begin at the
Portland Theatre box Office today. The Bal
timore Sun says: 'Zozo" is spectacular
drama, quite different from the old style, in
asmuch as there IS ns.balet and no variety
specialtes. 1t is singularly clean, highly
amusing, exceptionally beautiful and quite
interesting, while the scenery and parapher-
MALTA excels any similar entertainment in
Baltimore. The company is large and efllc-
lent. It's happy blending Of the beautiful
with the amusing, feeding both the eye and
the ear in pleasing combination.
